The world's best font engine, Tarzan FreeType, open source: we stand on the shoulders of giants

  Recently, Taishan FreeType is officially open source!

  Saying that Tarzan FreeType is the best font engine in the world, is it not a blow? of course not. Because we stand on the shoulders of giants, one step ahead of giants!

  There are two major improvements in this open source part:

  • The special italic effect of Chinese vertical

There are actually two layouts that have this special italic, T2B-NE/L2R-WN.

  • Supports multiple stroke thicknesses 

  Here you can also use any italic width. For example, FreeType defaults to 0.2, and OFFICE defaults to 0.35. This improvement is too small, so let's not talk about it.

  Technical Description

  • Specific open source URL

tsitcn · GitHub

  • Why are there two FreeType open source directories? 

  In the actual test, it is found that on some systems, if the system's freetype and Taishan FreeType are loaded at the same time, a conflict will occur. So I did a separate open source project: the result of the compilation is tsfreetype/libtsfreetype, and all FT_ are changed to FT_TS_

  • The relevant code has been sent to FreeType, and we look forward to seeing you in the next version
  • Will continue to open source in the future
